Reid: Senate Dems will not work with Romney


 
Reid Says Senate Democrats Will Not Work with Romney
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) said he will not cooperate with Mitt Romney if he wins the presidency, National Journal reports.

It's "his latest and perhaps final shot at a candidate who aides say Reid personally disdains."

Said Reid: "Romney's fantasy that Senate Democrats will work with him to pass his 'severely conservative' agenda is laughable. In fact, Mitt Romney's Tea Party agenda has already been rejected in the Senate."

After all the bitching and whining about the GOP being the party of NO, Dingy Harry promises to be the party of NO.

1. Despite my normally pragmatic nature, this is the right attitude

If obstructionism is what is rewarded then, unfortunately, it's what we have to do. I don't think it's going to come to that, though.

Just remember if 0bama wins and when the house isn't rolling over for the dems that you support the dems obstructing.

2. I can support this.

Time to stop coddling the treasonous party

How are we the treasonous party? We aren't the ones trying to fundamentally change this country, we are trying to return this country to the Constitution.

but if the catastrophe happens, well **** 'em. Paybacks are a bitch.
Reid knows what a lying, conniving, scumbag Willard is.

Actually Reid is the lying conniving scumbag.

Yeah, right. This wave is going through 2014. They don't want to hear "...and Senator Rottencrotch sided with Harry Reid in efforts to keep Obamacare, and have your taxes raised..." im campaign ads during the mid terms.

Reid hasn't exactly been "working with" 0bama, either. When was the last time the Senate passed a budget again?

2009 if I'm not mistaken.

That's a really odd statement to be saying this close to the election.  It doesn't really exude confidence.  People who are sure things are going to be in their favor don't really make statements about what would happen if they don't win.

Yeah.  0-99 for two years running and no budget in three + years?

Ummmm....what Senator Pederas...er, Reid?

Who the **** cares, Reid?  You won't be the majority leader anymore... so there isn't a lot of stone walling you can do.  Then in the next election, we are sending your ass back to Searchlight, NV.

Jess, I'd be angry with you guys in NV for voting for him again, but then I'd have to explain all those years of Arlen Specter and then Bob Casey after him. So we'll call it a wash, ok?  :)

It's the union people that get him re-elected.  We need to get those people to see the light (fat chance...) in order to permanently get him out of Washington.

Only 4 more years until NV can kick Dingy Harry out. Sometimes I wish Senators didn't have six year terms.

The least surprising part of that article was that Sen. Reid wouldn't work with the Republicans. What else is new? He, and Nancy Pelosi, have sacrificed many of their own party in traditionally Republican areas of the country in order to steamroll us with a socialist agenda. The number of blue dogs that are gone is endless, all because it has become poison to be a Democrat in part thanks to Harry. His party is holding the bucket for four years ( with two in a super majority) of the most disastrous performance ever acted out by an American government. I'll be EXTREMELY surprised if some high ranking Democrats don't sigh a big relief when that administration is gone since they can finally drop the gun they've been holding to their careers and move away from that disgrace. Nevada needs a John Thune, a real dragon slayer, to get rid of Reid once and far all. Just like how we pulled off the impossible by putting Daschle in the bin of political hasbeens. Anybody know off hand who in Nevada is going to be the one to run against Reid?

We'll see. The Republican establishment made some blunders on endorsements 2 years ago and I'm hoping they feel true conservative republicans are in demand.

Sharron Angle, the Tea Party candidate, lost aginst Reid in 2010 due to casino worker unions endorsement and support. He's not on the docket again until Romney/Ryan's reelection in 2016

Thought just occurred to me: We all know that Obamacare has THOUSANDS of instances of "The Secretary shall determine...". What's to stop Mitt's Sec of HHS from just determining that all those instances are in our favor, and writing the regs that way?

How many other bills over the past 4 years were written that way? O and the Dems didn't think far enough ahead to where our unelected bureaucrats would be able to dismantle their work.

Republicans are going to take the Senate, so Romney doesn't have to worry about whether Reid cooperates or not.

And this changes what? Harry Reid hasn't worked in the past 4 years so why would anyone expect anything different? Thanks for the tip there Woodward I'm sure to alert the Media when It  becomes necessary.

Why would Reid say such a thing anyway?  Does he have some inside poll numbers that we don't know about?

If there are actually any undecideds left, that type of crap isn't going to win them over.

Sorry Kyle. I just don't see that happening. Might pick up a seat, maybe two, but I just don't see it.

I just hope they pick another majority leader.  I know enough not to bet on it though.

Reid is a corrupt, hateful, partisan idealogue.

Because he's a mindless democrat that sees the end coming and is trying to sound tough.

I doubt it would matter Chris. At the end of the day, they are all democrats.
